Conference

“Love is the answer, what was the question?” Einstein once said. The human being is a relationship being, it is impossible for us to not be in a relationship. However, how is it that our relationships are sometimes so complicated, tortuous and painful? The unconditional love for our children is a certainty, but how come that isn’t always the case with our lifetime partner? Love is so vast and has multiple levels. I invite you to come and better understand these relationships that improve or intoxicate our daily lives, to better live with them on a daily basis.

Ariane Laberge is a professional NLP coach certified in family systems and relationship coaching. An expert in the field of systemic relationships, she quickly detects the hidden dynamics that poison our relationships. Since we are all relationship beings, whether on a personal or business level, she is the reference for managing conflict situations and restore balance and harmony. Ariane is an exceptional person! Her beautiful personality, her humor, her generosity and her many life experiences make her an inspiring woman.

Sauna

The Aufguss is one of those rituals that give you the most relaxing experience. A “sauna master” of the opgietmeester accompanies you into the sauna and pours a special mixture of water and essential oils on the hot stones, producing a cloud of steam, while the essential oils perfume the air. At the same time the “sauna master” makes circular movements with a towel to circulate the air and to remove the insulating layer of air that surrounds your body. The temperature around your body is rising and despite the sensation of heat you might end up with goose bumps on your skin. In the middle of the session, we will serve you frozen citrus fruits to cool you off. You will leave the Aufguss session in a state of relaxation that you have never experienced before. And if you have never tried an Aufguss, this is the perfect opportunity to do so!

Activity

Experience two programs in one hour! The session will start with a run at your own pace, supervised by a qualified coach who will give you advice on running. The distance to our destination will be about 1.5 km. The workout will continue with Cardio-FIT, a circuit program combining cardiovascular and muscular exercises. To return to Strom Spa you can either run or walk. The workouts are for all fitness levels. Sportswear and a water bottle are required.

Sauna

It is a hot steam bath which differs from the Scandinavian dry heat sauna. The steam is obtained by spraying hot water on a brick stove. The temperature can be anywhere between 65 ° C to 120 ° C, it is not advisable to stay in the banya more than 5 minutes at a time. Also it is recommended to put a beanie, preferably made of felt, to protect the head from the intense heat. According to tradition people hit themselves vigorously with bunches of dried branches and leaves from birch, oak or eucalyptus. These branches form a "broom" called venik and they are moistened with water before they are used. The purpose is to cleanse and soften the skin, to activate the sweating and the blood circulation all while releasing a pleasant fragrance. Once this "massage" is finished, it is customary to dip in a cold water pool, a lake, a river or to roll in the snow in winter time. Usually this ritual is repeated two to three times before enjoying some tea and sweet treats in the relaxation room. In general, the Russians stay at a banya for at least two hours (alternating with cold shower breaks of course) to take advantage of the effects of the hot steam.

Conference

Do you agree that when we feel good in our daily lives, our attitude, our actions and our quality of life change for the better? Life becomes more beautiful, more exciting and less stressful. We all deserve to feel good. Feeling good is a skill that should be taught in school ... the good news is that it's never too late to learn. It will change one’s life in a very positive way. We'll talk about positive and negative emotions. What’s their purpose? Where do they come from? And most importantly, what we do with them in different situations. Why is it, that one day we are full of energy and everything is possible, but the very next day, nothing works anymore? Instead of being passive, you can be proactive and be the captain aboard. In this interactive workshop you will learn the importance of living and managing your emotions and you will leave with practical, powerful and quick-acting tools. You will not regret it!

Me and my relationships...

The holidays are fast approaching. For some, it is a time of sharing, joy, love and abundance. For others, the prospect of the holidays is not as positive; sadness and loneliness take center stage. In both cases, the number of social gatherings is at its peak; at the office, with friends or with family. Stress becomes omnipresent. This often results in relationship conflicts that are difficult to manage and to repair subsequently. Why not be proactive this year and pick innovative tools that will make all the difference. The quality of your relationships may become increasingly positive, not only during this holiday period but also in your everyday life. This is an invitation to take back the power over your happiness once and for all. We are looking forward to growing together with you.

Stop being too nice: Learn to say no without feeling guilty ....

Yes, kindness is a priceless virtue. Yes, it is an invaluble element in maintaining good relationships, but excessive kindness does exist and can become poisonous in many ways. Are there moments where you think that you are doing too much for others? That you always put their needs before yours? And that you are always short on time because of it? You're not even sure if your contribution is appreciated? Or worse, when you need help yourself, the same people are not available to help you? For you, it is unthinkable to say no, especially if it is to help your children, your parents, your spouse or your beloved colleagues. But at what price? You probably have a long list of things to do following you around and feelings of exhaustion, frustration and resentment that accompany that list. If this speaks to you, this coaching workshop is perfect for you. You will discover that you always have the option of saying yes or no to the demands and needs of others without feeling guilty. More interestingly, the people involved will accept your answer, even a no ... with respect. You'll quickly realize that choosing to be kind to yourself before taking care of others is beneficial to your health and well-being of everybody else around you. We are looking forward to welcome you to this workshop!

LEARN HOW TO GAIN SELF-CONFIDENCE

Is it possible to be self-confident at all times? Self-confidence is one of those qualities everyone would like to have. Some people are self-confident by nature. But for the majority of us, it's a different story. It's a real challenge! Is being self-confident really that important? Absolutely! It is a known and quickly realized fact that self-confidence produces a positive energy that is deeply felt, whether it is in business, in sports, or in our love life. It lifts us up and at the same time gives confidence to the people around us. Self-confidence inspires and attracts success!

This is an invitation for you to come and demystify the reasons of our degree of self-confidence and its many components: our doubts, our fears and our ongoing thoughts. This awareness gives us an interesting path to follow and makes us discover simple but powerful tools to create a new confidence for all the tests coming our way. We are increasing our chances to succeed in our lives and maybe even realize our wildest dreams! I am very confident that you will appreciate this proposal in a big way.

Living in full awareness to free yourself from stress is possible! By Zanie Roy

How many times a day are you really present and aware of what you are doing? When you brush your teeth? While eating your lunch? Saying goodbye to your child?

Our mind is rarely in the present moment, it is often busy projecting itself into the future or returning to the past. And when we revise, project, wander, and assume ... worries appear, fears arise, catastrophic scenarios are being created and we become stressed out.

To live in full awareness means to be here, in the now, moment after moment. By paying attention to the present moment, we are developing a certain form of wisdom and control, based on our ability to relax, to be conscious and to develop a deep vision of what is real.

Through a series of exercises, guided meditations and simple instructions, you will discover easy and effective tools to exercise mindfulness in your life and therefore live a more satisfying life centered on wellbeing, opening of the heart and the calmness of the mind.

Zanie Roy is a certified yoga teacher, a meditation guide and a qualified MBSR (mindfulness-based stress reduction) teacher at the Center for Mindfulness, UMASS Medical School. Passionate about life, Zanie leads her sessions with rigor, humor and lightness and allows everyone to find the path that leads to peace and wellbeing with gentleness. An expert in full consciousness meditation, which she practices every morning, she especially loves to start her day by meditating, "it fertilizes the mind and body for a pleasant day ahead", as she likes to say to her students.

Zanie also guides yoga and meditation retreats in Quebec and abroad. In 2011, she founded espace prana, a yoga and meditation center where students meet to relax and reconnect with themselves. Zanie also offers private meditation sessions to manage pain, anxiety and stress.

What’s better than having an abundance of energy and vitality to achieve your dreams and complete your projects? One of the secrets of good health is having a strong immune system, and sometimes we need to strengthen it even more.

In this conference she shares her best advice to give our body the best possible chances! She will talk about the following:

-What to do if you catch a cold or an infection anyways

-How to put together your own natural pharmacy

-An example of what a travel protocol looks like

The conference will take place in a simple, welcoming and pleasant atmosphere to promote an easy transition towards overall well-being.

Conference by Marie-Daniel Lussier

Conference-workshop by Marie-Daniel Lussier - Be Authentic! How to realize your full potential and live in better relationships with others.

How do we make meaningful choices reflecting our core values? Why do we fail to be completely ourselves in our personal, professional or family relationships? The purpose of this conference-workshop is to show you how to honor your differences and to learn listening to your specific needs and your resources in order to be more authentic and thus live a more satisfying life; in your relationships and in making your dreams and projects come true. Taking the time to participate in this workshop will allow you to find the tools to help you go further and recover your inner momentum in order to better enjoy your life.

Together we will look at the following:

• The importance to stop and create a relationship with yourself in order to be able to listen and feel your true, inner nature;

• The positive consequences of stopping and being authentic with yourself in order to be authentic in the relationships with others;

• The factors that block our authenticity and well-being, and how we can address them in order to find more freedom in our relationships and in the realization of our projects and dreams;

Obviously, this approach is done in the respect and in the rhythm of each participant. Looking forward to meeting you!

Stéphanie Dupuy, sommelier

Her first job was working for the SAQ and it was enough to give her a little taste of the trade! That’s how Stéphanie Dupuy’s passion for wine was born. Her interest and curiosity led her to follow the sommelier training program at the ITHQ, and then to obtain the diploma of the Wine and Spirit Education Trust Level 3. An internship in a vineyard situated in Ladoix-Serrigny in France allowed her to meet passionate people with whom she shared the everyday life of a winemaker. Working the land gave her a second wind for her love of the product. Since then, she has had the chance to visit and work alongside great winemakers from all over the world thanks to her work at Le Marchand De Vin. Today, she gives training courses as a private sommelier and does what she loves: speaking with authenticity about wine, simplifying it and making it accessible to everyone.
